I got a Nikon D800 for Christmas...... and under $500. Any suggestions?

So you got a high end dSLR and want to use cheap low end lenses on it, specifically a 10x zoom lens. Ugh, I'm sure others reading this feel the same way. First off, generally good quality zoom lenses are not more than 3x such as 24-70, 70-200 and you want an 11x zoom.

You will be better off in the long run buying good quality lenses instead of cheap lenses. If you buy cheap lenses, there's a good chance you'll end up with a cabinet of cheap, low quality lenses that you don't use.

So consider a prime such as a 50mm since good zoom lenses are generally $1000+.
